A WORD FROM ALL WORLD SHIPPING

AWS SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS

Dear AWS Agents and Friends,

Over the past several months All World Shipping has migrated all of the AWS systems to a new server.  This investment has resulted in a dramatic improvement in transaction speeds of about 400% and a substantial increase in capacity to meet the demands of our existing agents and the new agents we anticipate adding over the next few years. At the same time the system stability has been improved which translates into reduced downtime.

This change included a new production tool plus a new database. The migration features an upgrade to a new application providing a more stable environment and one that will support new features to meet market demands as we move forward. AWS also completed the development and implementation of some new elements such as the multipage HBL and a faster method to synchronize the AWS database with U.S. Customs on AMS transactions. We also updated items like port list and container size/type and we now permit you to show individual marks & numbers or combined marks & number.

It was a large challenge rolling out these redesigned features while simultaneously maintaining daily operations. The overall launch process went very well. As is often the case with new systems, there have been a few start-up/transition issues and some minor delays. Any issues raised during the transition were dealt with swiftly by the IT team and we appreciate the excellent level of cooperation between the AWS Agents and the development group and the Customer Service Team. AWS invites your feedback on these changes. Any comments or suggestions on how you feel we can further improve the service provided by All World Shipping are always welcome.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Gerard J DeBow

Vice President Business and Process Development
All World Shipping Corp.

Maersk - Congestion Surcharge – World to/ from United States and Canada - Change of effective dates

As a follow up to the August 31st advisory regarding the congestion surcharge (CON) applicable to all shipments to/from ports in the United States and Canada, we are adjusting the effective dates for this surcharge as per the below:

Export shipments via the U.S. West Coast - Effective date: October 8, 2012

All Canada import and export shipments - Effective date: October 8, 2012

All other shipments will remain effective date October 1, 2012

The amounts of the surcharge are as follow and are applicable to both dry and reefer shipments:

USD 800 per 20' container

USD 1000 per 40' STD

USD 1125 per 40' HC

USD 1266 per 45' container

Maersk - Reefer Rate Increase

Maersk will increase the reefer base rate by USD 1500 per forty foot equivalent unit (FFE) across the globe effective January 1, 2013. Transporting refrigerated cargo is an important business for Maersk Line, and we have played a significant role in developing the reefer service industry. We would like to continue to maintain the current scale and scope of services we have on offer, so that you can build your supply chain around a consistent reefer flow.But refrigerated containers are almost four times as costly to build as dry containers and associated expenses such as plugs, bunker cost and R&D put pressure on costs. We are committed to our reefer customers and would like to continue investing in reefer equipment, but the current rates do not make it financially sustainable for us to do so. Given this scenario, we have decided to no longer invest in reefers in 2013.
